SLIDE-IN CAMPERS
CAMPER APPLICATIONS
Certain truck models are not recommended for
slide-in campers. To determine if your vehicle is
excluded, please refer to the “Consumer
Information Truck-Camper Loading” document
at www.ramtrucks.com. For safety reasons,
follow all instructions in this important
document.
NOTE:
When a cap or pickup camper is installed on a
vehicle, an alternate Center High-Mounted Stop
Light (CHMSL) must be provided.
EASY-OFF TAILGATE
To simplify mounting of a camper unit with an
overhang, the tailgate can be removed.
NOTE:
The electric connector at the bottom of the tail-
gate must be disconnected prior to removing
the tailgate.

ensuring the connector bracket does not

4. Connect the chassis plug and bracket
(provided in the glove compartment) to the
chassis wiring harness and insert the
bracket back into the sill.
5. Connect the tailgate plug (provided in the
glove compartment) to the tailgate wiring
harness to ensure that the terminals do not
corrode.
WARNING!
To avoid inhaling carbon monoxide, which is
deadly, the exhaust system on vehicles
equipped with “Cap or Slide-In Campers”
should extend beyond the overhanging
camper compartment and be free of leaks.
